Top Ten Excuses Heard At Hendrick Motorsports Weekly Post Race Meeting
Jeff Meyer · Wednesday February 20, 2008
10. (Someone from the No. 48 team): “…but all we gotta do is be in at least 12th by race 26 — right?"
9. Chad Knaus: “I do my best work when I’m not allowed at the track.”
8. (Someone from the No. 24 team): "Well, we hired this new kid, see — Shane Hmiel, I think his name was — to work on the suspension…"
7. Jimmie Johnson: “I'm the reigning back-to-back Champion. You'll have to ask my agent.”
6. Dale Earnhardt, Jr.: “I, uh…I wuz runnin pretty goo…girls! SSSHHHH! Stop it! Hold on a minute, can't you see they are asking me a question…I, uh…what was the question again?"
You see, Dale and Casey, we’ll let you shine in the exhibition and fuel mileage races —- but when it comes to the Big Ones, let’s face it … you’re not going to beat us.
5. Jimmie Johnson: “My agent just told me that Brian France told him that we, the reigning back-to-back Champions, were to give the other cars a chance.”
4. Junior (looking back over his shoulder at Jimmy and Jeff): “Well, I don't know ‘bout the rest of y'all, but hell, I wuz up front most of the day and I never saw any teammates in my rearview mirror… ‘cept my bud Casey here.”
3. Casey Mears (leaning over and whispering to Jr.): "Ha, Ha! Welcome to my world, buddy! At least I ain't the only red-headed stepchild ‘round here no more!"
2. Junior (waving a pair of checkered flags): “Hey, boys! Look what I found this past week! How many y'all got? What's that? I can't heeeaaaar you…"
1. Steve Letarte (mumbling to himself): “Damnit! I know better than to patch her call through to Jeff on the radio! ‘Jeffy, we need more diapers…NOW’”
